Split Loans

The Best of Both Worlds. Hedging Your Bets Has Never Been Smarter.

Can’t decide between the certainty of a fixed interest rate and the flexibility of a variable rate? You don’t have to choose. A Split Loan allows you to divide your mortgage into multiple parts, giving you a tailored balance of stability and freedom.

At Lendable, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all home loans. Because we operate with complete independence, we look far beyond the Big Four banks to find agile lenders offering highly customisable split structures that fit your exact financial situation.

How Does a Split Loan Work?

You choose exactly how to slice the pie based on your comfort level and financial goals. For example, on a $500,000 mortgage, you might decide to split it 60/40.

The Fixed Portion ($300,000): You lock in a set interest rate for a specific period (usually 1 to 5 years). No matter what the Reserve Bank of Australia does, your repayments on this portion remain exactly the same, giving you total peace of mind and budgeting certainty.

The Variable Portion ($200,000): This part of your loan moves with the market. If interest rates drop, your repayments drop too. More importantly, this portion unlocks agile features – like an offset account or unlimited extra repayments – so you can pay down your debt faster.

The Split Advantage: Why It Makes Sense

  • Manage Your Interest Rate Risk: If interest rates rise, your fixed portion shields you from the full impact. If rates fall, you still get to benefit from lower rates on your variable portion.
  • Repayment Flexibility: Fixed loans usually cap how much extra money you can pay into them. By having a variable slice, you can channel work bonuses, tax returns, or everyday savings into your mortgage without facing bank penalties.
  • Access Modern Loan Features: You can link a 100% offset account to your variable portion. Every dollar sitting in your savings account reduces the interest you owe on that part of the loan, while your fixed portion keeps your monthly budget predictable.
